CANADA'S FISHERIES.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 11.-Joseph Chamber

next week, as will President Angel and
William L. Putnam The fisheries negotia-
lions will begin about Nov 20. 1t looks
now as though the negotiations would take
q broader range. Sir Charles Upper may
be expected to come prepared with some
proposition respecting the appeal for com
mercial reciprocity treaty made by the
provincial Premier of Canada, or at all
events with exact information as to the
real desires of the Canadians upon
this point. 1t will be evident to
the negotiators on both sides that any set

fisheries question must be tentative and

a general treaty of commercial reciprocity
which would finally settle all questions
pending between this country and Great
Britain respecting Canada.

A YOUTH ON A SPREE.
He Winds Up by Taking Morphine
but Didn't Want to Die.

AUGUSTA, GA, Nov. 11-Walter Nolan,
son of Judge Nolan, of Henry county, regis
tered at the Augusta Hotel Thursday.
During the day he became intoxicated, and
in the afternoon was arrested. After spend
ing the night in Jail he appeared at the
Augusta Hotel to-day and lounged about the
office. About 10 O'clock he went into the
bar, asked for lumber of water and re-
tired to a corner, where, as subse-
quently learned, he mixed and swal-
lowed three grains OF morphine
After this he walked to the
clerks counter and handed him the pack
age, pointing to the label. There was a stir
and a physician was imme lately sum
moned, but before he arrived Nolan had
begun to vomit, and this saved, or at least
prolonged, his life. He was taken in
comatose state to the city hospital, where
mrdical aid is in attendance. He may die,
but the chances at this writing are in his
favor. He is handsome, well dressed and
evidently educated.

There is much loose talk with respect
to the conditions of salvation. Certain
requirements are enumerated, which we
must comply with or endanger our eter-
nal interests. Unfortunately, the GEN.
trail requirement is not always charac-
ter. Too often, some arbitrary condi-
tions are imposed, to which is given
undue emphasis. To unite with the
church is, under most circumstances, a
commendable action; but it does not
by any means insure what we call sal
walton. At best, it is only helpful
ordinance. In seasons of extraordinary
religious excitement, signs of CONVEX
sion are earnestly dem Anded. The
best sign is an exemplary life. Pro-
fession is creditable when it includes
possession. What is salvation, If not
character ? Men sometimes talk conf
IDENTIFY about realizing heaven in some
future existence, while they overlook
the emphatic declaration of Christian
ity, that the kingdom of heaven is
within. Heaven begins here. Saliva
ton is present condition of spirit.
Salvation and character are only differ
ent names for the same experience. 1t
is to the credit of this church that it
insists that every man must stand ON
his own merits, that no amount of re-
igious protest can substitute for hon.
est and consecrated practice, and that
handling the word of truth Alright"
means foremostly, centrally, and eter-
nally the fulhllment of the divine OBJ
legation, "Do ye unto others as ye
would have others do unto you"
We deny most decidedly the state
ment that the death of Christ affects
our moral standing in any other way
than to stimulate us to broader achieve
ments, and stamp as anti Biblical and
obnoxious to reason the thought that
the consequences of our manifold trans
gressions fall upon the shoulders of an
innocent Christ. Whatever rewards
we achieve, we achieve through our
own exertions. We are not borne to
bliss on the shoulders of another, but
accept happiness only as the result of
personal endeavOrs. We bear our own
punishments. We achieve our own
successes. There is no substitute for
individual endeavor.
We emphasize character in religion.
No man can be religious without it,
even though he stand at the altar in
the insignia of accepted priest. Better
than formal profession, far superior to
those conventional methods generally
supposed to lead to conversion or sane
tifcation, infinitely above the hiding of
conscious faults in the bosom of an in
nocent brother, is that well-regulated
conduct which originates in no excite
ment or strained condition of the emo
tions, but in the inevitable product of
individual endeavor. q. r. Tenn

81 contend" says this orthodox
preacher, "that if we could believe in
the salvation of all men, it would add a
fresh incentive to the heart of every
lover of righteousness the world over.
This contamination is so satisfying to
the reason that pleads for unity and
harmony in this whole system of things;
to the conscience that would fain post
ulate the final ascendency of moral law
over the rational life of the universe; to
the affection that would lay siege to
hell in the hope that it might at last fall
into the hands of holiness; and to the
will that would carry Gods sovereign
purpose over the whole circle of being,
that If we could be certain of it, it
would add to the missionary motive in
calculable strength"
In view Of statement like this, may
we not expect that there will be some
thing less sneering at Universalism as
lacking in moral power and tending
only to barrenness May we not look
for a more generous recognition of
what the Universalist church has done,
or attempted to do, in the way of phil
anthropic and Christian enterprises,
and in the manifestation of a genuine
missionary spirit?
But l am not much troubled at any
adverse Judgment, or criticism, of our
Universalist faith; am most troubled
that we who receive its blessings, and
walk in its illumination, and know of
its motives and grand inspirations to
Christian service, do not become better
witnesses of its power. o my broth
ers, shall not the love of Christ con-
strain usp Shall we not, out of the af-
lection of our crucified, risen and spir-
itual Saviour, 90 forth to do our full
part in the service to which he calls his
faithful disciples ? Is there not enough
of inspiration in our faith, in the Cos
pei of Christ as we apprehend it, in the
felt communications of the Holy Ghost
to our minds and hearts, to impel us to
fresh energy in the doing of Christian
work ? Shall we not feel the working
of a power within us making us equal
to the large demands imposed, leading
us to rise to the heightI of all new op
portunities, imparting to us a fervor
and zeal to grapple with all social and
moral problems, to carry forward great
enterprises of reform, education and
public blessing, giving practical help to
extend Christ's kingdom on the earth :?
o brothers and friends, may we take up
this work; prosecute these and all mis-,
sionary endeavors; realizing always that
mans power is great, but that mans
power reinforced by the Divine might
is invincible. "And not unto US, but
unto thy great and Holy name, o Lord
of Hosts, be the glory forever"
